No Grind, No Goodness
Hello friends,
I've been thinking about what it takes to stay on track with something meaningful—especially when it's hard.
An unexpected surprise
Two months ago, my workout buddy—an artist with exceptional talent—made a commitment: draw every day for an hour or two. Sixty days in, the shift is dramatic. Not just in his technique but in his mood. The depression? He reports that it's pretty much gone. Why? Because art is his calling. And when he shows up for it, something in him settles and aligns.
The voice that says, 'not today'
We must face the part of us that wants to bail. That's where shadow work comes in. It helps us turn toward procrastination, resistance, and doubt—and get curious. Where is that voice coming from? What's it protecting?
Your chance to say YES!
What's calling you? What would happen if you said yes to it—and kept saying yes for the rest of your life?
If you're ready to explore that calling—and what's in the way—I invite you to reach out or join me for a retreat this year.
Wishing you strength for the grind and the enjoyment of the gift it brings,
Mark
